Just when Guan Shanyue was deep in thought, his own soldier Chen Ergou hurriedly took a mud-sealed envelope and broke into the war room without even knocking on the door, "My lord, this is an eight-hundred-mile rush sent by the Holy Lord, and the post guard said that you must check it as soon as possible." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Guan Shanyue nodded, and after looking at the intact stamp on the sealing mud to confirm that it was intact, she opened the envelope and checked it.

Taking out the letter paper and looking at it, Guan Shanyue was shocked to find that this was not a letter written by Emperor Chongzhen at all, but a begging letter written by Emperor Taiji of the Later Jin Dynasty to Emperor Chongzhen.

"Jin Khan played the Ming Emperor, and the small country raised troops, not because he was not satisfied, and he wanted to be big, and he thought about it. Just because the border officials practiced too much, the small country held a grudge and could not reach it, so the soldiers were extended to this day. If there is no end to the war, what good will it do to be a calamity to one another? If peace is accomplished, each other will be blessed immeasurably, so this small country would like to see peace......"

Guan Shanyue was furious when he saw it, this emperor was extremely cunning, and he even asked Emperor Chongzhen to refer to the peace agreement between Jin and Song and use money to buy peace.

In the letter, Huang Taiji opened his mouth and bluntly said that he wanted the Ming Dynasty to give out 100,000 taels of gold, 1 million taels of silver, 1 million pieces of satin, and 10 million pieces of cloth, but he did not talk about the issue of returning the land of the Ming Dynasty. It's just cheap, but it doesn't give Da Ming any benefit.

Guan Shanyue's forehead was exposed, and she slapped the letter paper on the table angrily, and scolded loudly: "This is definitely Fan Wencheng's traitor's idea to Huang Taiji, he wants to bite a piece of meat from Daming's body one last time before dividing up Daming, and he thinks beautifully!" The emperor can't stop this battle, even if he riskes his life, Guan Mou will also fight to the death with Houjin. ”

In his eyes, the icy and snowy natural environment of Houjin severely limited their productivity, and they could not afford it at all.

The personnel of the staff also analyzed from the recent battles that in the war against the Ming Dynasty, the number of Jianzhou Jurchens in the army was getting smaller and smaller, and they basically relied on the Haixi Jurchens, Mongols, Goryeo sticks and Han people who returned to Shun to support the scene. This shows that Houjin has basically come to the brink of collapse.

Moreover, now the thieves in the Ming Dynasty are becoming more and more unpopular, even with the fledgling Wu Sangui, the consumption can also consume the Houjin to death.

When Guan Shanyue turned the letter to the last page, she found Chongzhen's Zhu criticism in the last blank space: "I, never make peace, all as usual!" ”

Seeing Emperor Chongzhen's forehead, Zhu criticized Guan Shanyue, he breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't know if the old boy of King Fu was on the way of Huang Taiji, and he prayed in his heart that King Fu could see that Huang Taiji was delaying time.

"Batur, you quickly go and summon all the officers of the Southern Battalion to the war room for a meeting!"

Batur gave a standard salute and said with his head held high: "Yes! With that, he turned into a whirlwind and disappeared into the war room.

Before Chen Ergou came in, Guan Shanyue was thinking about when to attack Houjin, and Emperor Chongzhen's letter completely confirmed his idea of making a move in advance.

According to Jiang Dahong, the chief stargazing officer of the East China Sea, there will be strong winds from west to east in the East China Sea ten days later, and Guan Shanyue feels that this is the best time to start a war in the recent period.

Thinking of this, he took up his pen and wrote a letter asking the staff to coordinate from it. After writing it, the ink was put into an envelope and handed it to Chen Ergou's hand before it was written, with a majesty on his face, "Chen Ergou, you quickly hand over this letter to the military post and order them to send it to the Daning Staff Headquarters for eight hundred miles, there must be no mistake!" ”

Chen Ergou knew that the stakes were very high, and he didn't dare to slack off, "Yes!" He gave a military salute and turned to leave.

After Liu Wenxiu, the staff department, received the news that Guan Shanyue had started ahead of schedule, he immediately began to implement the battle plan that had been approved by Emperor Chongzhen a long time ago. Within a few days, the entire four northern provinces and Shandong Province, as well as Hejian Province, were all in motion.

In the fourth year of Chongzhen, on July 16, the weather was fine, and the Ming army on the northern front agreed to start the offensive.

When the sky was just dawning, Li Dingguo, the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan, took the lead in sending troops from Ningyuan City and launched a fierce attack on Wu Sangui, who was entrenched in Jinzhou.

The commander-in-chief of the Liaodong front, Setel, also followed, leading 300,000 new troops and 300,000 militiamen from Harbin, Jiamusi, Tongjiang, and Fushun to launch a fierce attack on the entire Houjin line along the Mudanjiang River.

Zhang Xianzhong, the commander-in-chief of Ezo Island, led the Taining Battalion and 200,000 new troops to launch a fierce attack on the Japanese mainland from Ezo Island.

The Ming Dynasty launched a full-scale war against Houjin, swept towards Houjin with the autumn wind sweeping the leaves, and attacked the city all the way to the fortress.

Caught off guard, the Houjin troops who rushed to the battle were the opponents of the Ming New Army, and the entire Liaodong front line was completely turned into a pot of porridge.

After Huang Taiji learned the news of the Ming Dynasty's attack, he couldn't believe that Emperor Chongzhen, who had been in defensive mode, didn't know when there were so many troops, and he turned on the crit mode overnight, and Houjin was powerless to fight.

In a panic, he knew that the Ming army might draw salaries from the bottom of the kettle on the Goryeo Peninsula, and he was forced to send batches of Jurchen soldiers and Goryeo sticks to help the front line in Liaodong. Whether the Wa Kingdom wanted it or not, he put all the heavy responsibility of defending the Goryeo Peninsula on the Wa State.

On 18 July, Guan Shanyue's East China Sea Division, which had already completed its assembly in the East China Sea, finally waited for the long-awaited northwest wind.

Guan Shanyue stood on the wide deck of the treasure ship Shandong on several floors, and observed the form on the battlefield through a telescope. The symbolism of his presence on the main ship was greater than the practical significance, but he knew what to do and what not to do, and he, as a layman, handed over all the command to the generals of Yuan Keli's old department of the Denglai Naval Division.

The Wa Kingdom probably hasn't gotten the news of the attack on their homeland, and they don't know what benefits Houjin has given them, so they really acted as a watchdog for Houjin at this time.

After relying on the advantage of range to carry out a frenzied bombardment of the Japanese invaders, the East China Sea Division did not leave a respite for the Japanese naval army at all, and then sent a modified Haicang ship, using a large fierce fire oil tank to burn the Japanese warships that escaped the attack, and suddenly the sea was on fire.

The flag soldier of the Shandong quickly waved the flag in his hand and exchanged with the ships on the opposite side, and shouted to Guan Shanyue: "Lord Guan, the other ships are asking if they want to shoot those fallen into the water?" ”

Guan Shanyue stood on the deck like a tall bronze statue, with a wicked smile on the corner of her mouth, and raised her head and shouted at the flag soldiers on the top floor: "Tell them that the dead devil is the good devil!" ”

The flag soldier nodded heavily, and happily used the flag language to pass Guan Shanyue's order to the various warships.

The ship passed the ship, and Guan Shanyue's order spread like the wind throughout the East China Sea Division. The soldiers were like shooting targets on weekdays, and they pulled the class against the struggling Japanese invaders on the sea, and the sea was like a New Year's Day.

After an hour of naval battle, the Japanese invaders, who had the advantage in the number of ships, could no longer parry. The remaining hundreds of warships of the Japanese Kingdom took care of each other like headless flies, and they did not even have time to rescue the Japanese who had fallen into the water on the sea, and they drew curves on the sea surface and fled towards the Goryeo Peninsula.

Although the officers and men of the East China Sea Division wanted to kill them all, they knew that this was only half of the combat strength of the Japanese Naval Division, and they were not carried away by the victory and rashly pursued the victory.

According to the established plan, 50,000 officers and men of the Namdaeying of the East China Sea Division landed on the right road of Gyeonggi Province and marched towards Seoul Province. The 50,000 officers and men of the Beida Battalion landed on the west of Pyongan Province and penetrated directly into Pyongyang Province.

The second wave of the Ming Dynasty, the commander of Ezo Island, was not idle, and he led an army of 100,000 troops to quickly seize the favorable opportunity to land at Yeongdong, Gangwon Province, on the Qionghai side of the Goryeo Peninsula, and firmly nailed it like a wedge to the boundary between the occupied areas of Houjin and the Wa Kingdom.
